Finishing Some UFO´s


On PPM 2019 I presented jeans collages, which were (and still are) in fact panels of quite large bags. 



They were created by coincidence when last spring my dearest sewing machine went to service to stay there unexpectedly long, all six months. What I didn’t have time until then, filled my free time in the summer. I got inspiration from Japanese quilting techniques and I also tried functional connection of individual parts of the collage in a way that they would sustain everyday use of a big bag without any problem even when they are filled with books from the library, potatoes from a farm market or even run through a washing machine.


 
More than a year later I finally began finishing the bags.  I actually don’t like this finishing work which explain the long pause. But now seems to be the right time to finish some UFO’s. The four of them lay on my sewing table, more are to come. 



The interior of the bags will be made from traditional Czech canvas, a very sturdy material and very fine to work with. There will be one big zippered pocket, one open pocket and one jeans pocket inside. Plus a key holder, of course.
